At least the chassis's somewhat airtight. XD
Anyway, you should be more efficient in using Snapper IIs. Snapper IIs have 2 locations for extender attachements. That means you could attach more than 2 motors at once. That means less weight used on Snappers and more weight allocated for weapon attachments. :D

Well, I did that and it was much more prone to receiving OHKOs from HSes, so I'll do some more comparisons to see which is better. :D Anyway, here's my failed attempt at cloning Sage's HS:  I also tried angling the drive extenders a notch up, but it couldn't drive at all at that state. >.< Anyway, time to clone the Snapper2 HS. >:D

Come to think of it, my team is just a speedier version of Ounce's team. Which means most of his bots can beat mine. :O

HELL YEAH OHKO >8D  So yeah, fixed Monochrome's realism issue, but it still has 14 razors. And yeah, I was n00b driving, but still. Even GMX couldn't cause a single scratch on Caesium's armor for some reason. :O

Because that's an armorless popup lol. So far, Click's Ultimate Sacrifice is the only MW to KO AC.

If you want to experiment with angled drive, at least use a better drive for that weight.

Here's my attempt:  I don't think I got the drive right, because mine isn't invertible.

Yeah, a pink is pretty slow, but it's enough for it to be mobile for the whole match. But of course, I still need to find a way to gain 7kg for the 2nd pink without sacrificing the weapons. I'll find a way soon. :P

Bow down, guys. This guy with no social life at all drew a GAT-X105 Strike Gundam using Microsoft Excel. EXCEL.

I'm on a roll! Another clone!  Yep, a Flying Guillotine clone. Kinda tough to pull off with these parts, but it does fine. Plastic, 10 razors (2 each on the single-axle arms, and 3 each on the twin-axle arms). I really love this clone, but too bad it's not wide enough for bots bigger than Surge 2 (and that's a very small MW HS x_x).

LOOK WHAT I FOUND ON TUMBLR! :O

At least one ant to make it spin at useful speeds and 2 if you want it to spin for the whole match.
It's still not a bad design, but it could be better. Instead of using aluminum extenders to hold the Perms, attach them directly to 2 multi-extenders since they still will have the same reach. The same can be done for the drive. With the free weight you can probably use a weaponed trapper on top since they can still act as a caster when inverted. :D

The first version had 2 pinks and 2 maces each + DSA. It failed badly. I tried to add more razors and a wider reach at the expense of armor and battery power, and it actually fared better. Though it would be nice if there's way to get the 7kg back for a pink without removing the weapons.

*cricket chirps* O_O Anyway, here's another clone:  One pink, plastic, 120cm pistons, 8 razors. Very slow, but that means it fares a bit better against wedges. :D

For the razors to pass through, you must remove the middle sheet. With the free weight you can upgrade the other 2 sheets.

The rammer....WHY SO AWESOME >:B
Because Trov built the original. :P The VS kinda took the idea of BOB and used a tribar instead... nifty. Almost like a LW Quiddity.
If only I had enough weight to clone the BOG trapping plows. That would've been more awesome. XD Anyway, in case you haven't seen it yet, here's Core Drill:  What I like most about this bot is that it's almost realistic (just the stacked batts and slightly intersecting RAD discs). Great wedges and srimech make this even deadlier. Core Drill is an awesome design (reminds me of Industrial Coal Miner in DSL).
And actually, my first BOTM prototype was an ICM clone (3 HPZ FSes). XD Anyway, here are 2 new bots:  It's a semi-clone of Pys' castered popup, with a double wedge instead of the single one. One black, 10 casters, 3 razors on DSA, and 6 razors on plastic. Both work quite well, but the wedges aren't performing to my liking (though both can get under MagiKK).

Yay another clone:  It's a Soul Smash clone, and instead of a black, this uses a Nifty, which gave me enough free weight to use rubbers and two extra razors. And here's a bot that's less of a clone:  Probably a mix of Autops[E] and Cross Section, I wanted to build a LW VS with 2 plows and a caster. It performed better than I expected, actually. Nifty and plastic.

CyClone's hard to control because of that drive. Try 2WD NPCFs with Hypnos and you can easily control it. If you still want to stick to 4WD, Mag drive with Hypnos would work as well.
For LandShark, errr.... one thing I know for sure is that you're inefficient with side protection. :P

For the first bot, nice name. :P
Anyway, it's much better to have a strong 2WD than a weak 4WD since the 2WD is faster, lighter, and uses less batteries.
Can't say much about the second bot, though showing the insides of both bots would help.
